Thanksgiving 2023
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! My favorite holiday. The Pastor Emeritus at our church does a weekly podcast and this week it focuses on Thanksgiving (called Gratitude). You can find it in Apple Podcasts here: From My Heart to Yours en Apple Podcasts, or on Player FM here: Gratitude From My Heart To Yours podcast (player.fm). Thankfulness is mentioned at least 71 times in the Bible, and Gratitude 157 times. Yet many of us reserve only one day a year to place a special emphasis on this aspect o
Has anyone been to a baptism lately
I believe the last one that I participated in at the church, was around two years ago. If people are not getting saved, and disciple that could make it, where there’s no baptism going on. Like the church that I am visiting. I’m not looking for the perfect church, but I did notice this. They are looking for a new preacher, it has been a while, maybe this could be the reason. I did mention it to one of the deacons, maybe he’ll bring it out in one of their meetings. This is not on the guest preache
The current economy
The current economy is on shaky grounds. It doesn’t matter who wins in November, 🇺🇸 to lead this country. Many church leaders are talking about political positions, and who can do better. Very few leaders talk about Christians and how they should manage their finances, in troubled times. Try stop talking on giving classes of tithing only and give classes or a Bible study on how to manage their finances, in troubled times. This will help Christians and the churches that they support.
Why did God used a evil king to make a great Bible, King James
God used this evil king, King James, to make a great Bible, along with great men. scholars of the days, and those men that fear God, they also feared the king. Don’t mess up, or off with your head.
Prayers for my wife, please.
My dear wife was taken to hospital last Tuesday she had been in sever pain for a while. After an X-ray she' was taken to hospital with multiple fractures to her back, fluid on the lungs, and a massive haitus hernia.(We already knew that, but didn't realise it was so sevede. They said that only 10% of her stomach is in the correct place.) When she went in I was told to say goodbye to her and pray with her. Yesterday the drained he lungs and took, a chest X-ray. Still waiting for results on X-ray
Leaving the IFB
Is the title click bate? 😀 Hey everyone, I'm curious about something and wanted to get your thoughts. In your part of the world, do you often see non-independent Baptist churches celebrating new members who have recently left the IFB? Here it almost seems like a goal for them, and I find it intriguing. Personally, I've never made a big deal about a non-IB member joining our church, but I'm interested in hearing about different experiences. Is it a common practice or more of a rare occurrenc

Proverbs 11:24-31 "The Liberal Law of Transference" (From Seed, To Wealth, To Righteousness, To Souls)
The goal of the harvest is not to store the grain in big barns and keep it there but rather to use it. While in storage it has enormous potential but no actual worth. Its power and value comes only when it is transferred from the Grainery to the people. So too it is with faith. It is of little use to others when it is only within us but it's true power comes when it is transferred to others. In this message we show how "The Liberal Law of Transference" works. How seeds harvested from the gr
The Word Easter (A Christian Etymology and Origin)
Easter in Acts 12:4 is the only mention of this word in our King James Bible. While the context and historical Christian tradition clearly shows this word to be reference to the celebration of Christ's resurrection on the Sunday Morning just after the Passover week, many have attempted to paganize or confuse this reference for various reasons. In this lesson we strongly refute those errant ideas and show the clear Christian etymology and origin of the word and why we still gladly use this wonder

Mary Meets Her Risen Lord (Easter Sunday - John 20) Pastor John Young Maranatha Bible Baptist Church 3How to keep Secrets (Proverbs 11:12-23)
Knowing how to manage the secretes that you are entrusted with is very important and is not something to be taken lightly. Thier proper management can greatly help yourself and others. In this message we show the blessing of keeping secrets and also the dangers of mismanaging them. Proverbs 11:12-23 ~ Authorized (King James) Version 12 He that is void of wisdom despiseth his neighbour: but a man of understanding holdeth his peace. 13 A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a fai
Critical Truths About The Scriptures Everyone Should Know
Critical Truths About The Scriptures Everyone Should Know Introduction This message is entitled "Critical Truths About the Scriptures Everyone Should Know." These critical truths will be taught through an historical drama told from the Old Testament. The main characters of our historical drama are little known or not known at all. Allow me to introduce them to you. First, there is the prophet Jeremiah. He is sometimes called “the weeping prophet” because of his tears that he she
Are You Righteous or Wicked? (Getting in balance with God, Proverbs 11:4-11)
When God balances the world on his scales of justice where will you be found? Will you be found without fault, or will you be found wanting? Will you be rewarded with the righteous or punished with the wicked? In this sermon we deal with these crucial questions and show how imperfect people such as us can not only be fond righteous but also thrive in holiness before God. We also show how we can influence our world for Good and have eternal benefits in the life to come rather than merely survivin
My Poetry Books
I have been wanting to put my poetry books together as ebooks or PDFs for a while now, but the methods I used before had their quirks - weird links and info on the sides or top and bottom of the books, and the format was often broken up when converted to PDF by someone's browser or ereader. Recently, I came across this website (printfriendly.com) that easily converts your documents or files to PDFs - basically just drag and drop, then rename the file as you'd like. One of the things I wa

Well, I originally wanted to call the message "Be a Liberal" considering those who might get triggered by the word because of the elections but that would have been too much like click-bait... The word is used a lot in non-political connotations ie. Add the spice liberally to the sauce, etc. So it's a good word on its own. Also, political "Liberals" do know how to uses this Biblical law to their advantage, so we ought to as well. Being a liberal in itself is not bad but only when it is to d -

Yet, the HOLY SPIRIT knowing all things chose to use these words. Either you believe the Word of God to be pure or you don't Eddie. I'm not concerned with what connotation the world puts on the words, I am more concerned with what God thinks. You seem to be happy being a contrarian. -

Words that are mention for good today, like liberal have been twisted. The same with the word Gay. Example: EpJer.1 [8] And taking gold, as it were for a virgin that loveth to go gay, they make crowns for the heads of their gods. Jas.2 [3] And ye have respect to him that weareth thegay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool:
